The argument here isn't about music in general, its about having someone clearly faking their performance. But hey, if you want to spend money on that, its your call.
The Unfan has it right there, but to just go about this a different way...

You're saying that in the studio and in creating music, it's fine to use autotune? But then those same artists need to not use it live, and it would be better to pay to go to concerts where the vocalist gives a terrible performance and is never on pitch?

Like I said, if you want to spend money on something that isn't genuine, you do that.
I'm not going to pay to see a singer use a device to help him sound better, because he really can't cut it by himself. And that's all it is.
I don't see how the singer's technical ability is possibly more important than deriving enjoyment from the sound of the music. Regardless of how it was made, what's important is if it sounds good or not.
